Feb 1 2012: People choosing to be loners? 'I think this is sad.' 'be friendly'. How about you say those things to someone whose mother is dead and has been emotionally neglected for most of his life, whose father is struggling with depression and alcoholism, someone who himself suffers with suicidal depression? How does this one person make your imaginary leap? You're telling me just to be sincere? I think that you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
Dec 14 2011: So this basically is an epistemological question. The way I see it is that it all boils down to a quantized system that involves not only the observed phenomena but the brain that is doing the observing. Is the logic that we percieve as logic is deeply rooted within the structure of the brain and therefor is it impossible for the brain to percieve higher order of symmetries just because of its limited structure? Or even going to a more fundamental level, how do you define existence? Why do we think the question 'Does the universe exist?' exists?
